Why did Fritz Haber win The Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1918?

He used Henri LeChatelier's failed attempt of production of ammonia to accelerate his research in the production of ammonia.

Fritz also played a major role in chemical warfare and was given funding by the Nazi's to continue his research on weapons.
